For the Feast of Corpus Christi (Fronleichnam), camping sites in Hessen are almost completely booked. Some sites, like Bettenhagen on Lake Edersee, only offer tent pitches without prior reservation. Others, such as Rhön-Camping-Park and the site at Nidda Reservoir, can only accommodate guests outside the holiday dates. According to an ADAC analysis, Hessen ranks second among the cheapest federal states for camping: a family of two adults and one child pays an average of 37 euros per night in the 2026 peak season.
